OP you haven't said if you are mobile and able to take a position anywhere. I'll post what I can find. Here is one entry level position that requires a 4 year degree, but is willing to train.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1090353 United States 11/07/2010 10:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It seems most companies out there want tons of experience for even their "entry level" jobs which is ridiculous. I'm finding that they are wanting to pay graduates with 4 year degrees as little as $12/hour! That is just WRONG! OP, I'm hoping you will find something and that they pay you well! |
